Scot-free

Self-serving pardons of conspirators
for selling missiles to our enemy
strange president, who'd served in a World War
now fought as hard for mis-placed loyalty.
By law, it's Congress gets to spend our funds.
'Though Reagan backed Somosa in this fight,
it's not OK to give deathsquads our guns;
it's not our job to stoke the global Right.
Our fulsome praise of George Bush41
implies critique of Trump, who's name's unsaid.
'Though Poppie dwarfed his cocaine-addled son,
he earns no halo just for being dead.
His cover-up of treason and high crimes
lies unexamined 'til the present times.
